A typical wet summer's day so I have been going through the info pack that David has compiled and doing my own research as it's always good to get a good picture in your head of what needs to be achieved.
I find it amazing how crudely the fitment of panel and rivet detail were in the mid 40's,definitely not built to last.

Oh no it won't. With the outer wings removed it sits on the U/C and is 50mm narrower that the space between the Espace wheel arches. Also I've modified the plans to make the booms removable which, with the back seats taken out, makes the fuselage a good 500mm shorter than the loadspace.

So there!
